[Excerpts]
REFUGEES are welcome’ is the clear message from hundreds of West Sussex residents who have signed petitions in response to the growing migrant crisis.
...
Community spirit has been evident across the county, with countless collections set up to gather vital supplies for the thousands of refugees camped in Calais.
...
Ahsan Ahmedi, leader of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community, has called upon international organisations to treat the crisis as a global issue and not just as a European issue.
He said a proper co-ordinated plan is urgently needed to distribute the refugees globally, rather than only focusing on Europe.
He added: “Genuine refugees are facing great difficulties. They have been forced to leave their countries due to the intolerable conditions and so should be treated with love, compassion and kindness.
“The entire world will have to show compassion and open hearts for this crisis to be handled. Rather than looking at their own interests only, nations will have to consider their moral responsibilities to those who are suffering.”
